Thank you for your quick reply!
Gpu is not overclocked and is on default settings.
I cannot confirm that GPU driver is at fault for 100% but I suspect it is. As these issues started occurring around the time of a driver update from Nvidea.
I am not able to provide you any info from the blender debugger.
Although the debugger launched successfully,
When blender freezes it crashes the entire computer. Everything freezes for several seconds Task manager can not be opened even with hotkeys.
It results in a blue screen crash Driver_Power_state_failure.

I also have this issue
